HH 1997 - Bear Model, bottom right. The Nuppeppo was never officially released unpainted or is that with a green spray? Either way, never seen that before.
Recent collaboration colorways, we don't see much BM on SB anymore, so i thought these were worth mentioning. Mainly Bear Model / Kaikodo Limited. I think Kaikodo is a gallery. I prefer the original colorways for all of these, but its nice to see BM still sporadically releasing Kaiju. All currently going for silly money on Ebay/Mandarake Dancan. Looks like a new green vinyl base. Bakutari. Possibly a new grey colour base. Cowra Pole Seijin Shimax limited edition ... (spotted on the BM sales thread recently).
A recent trade with a fellow Bear Model collector, he needed the clear Nova and i couldn't say no to this clear purple Akumania. I missed out on the solid version when Mandarake did a lottery years ago. It was a two figure set, but the Akumania was an extra 'bonus' figure and i couldn't afford it at the time ... i've regretted the decision to not spend the extra dough for years. Finally i have one in my collection, and the clear purple vinyl version is perfect for me.
An amazing piece. Also, he looks good big. First one that I ever saw was a keshi. It was cool, but still. Excellent score, ir!
wonderful shots, great stuff. In fact, I'm pretty sure that the first that I ever heard of Bear Model omake was through a post of yours many years ago. Some of the stuff that I liked best, thanks for showing those!
